Rabbi Eli Mansour on the True Minhag of Halab

Minhag Halab was to learn. Everybody has their interpretation [music] what Minhag Halab is. You know, to eat pizza on Ocean Parkway, and this one says to play Torah, and this one says, [music] you know, to sing pizmonim. It's true, they did those things, but Minhag Halab was it was a city [music] of scholars. They had ayun. Ayun means it was depth. They didn't learn superficially. They had a real hold on every single sugya, and they carried themselves in a very humble way, in a modest way. They didn't seek any honor or acclaim or kavod. So, that's the legacy of Minhag Halab is to learn.
